  Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly widow and asked,
  'How old was your husband?' '98,' she replied, 'Two years older than me'
  'So you're 96,' the undertaker commented.
  She responded , 'Hardly worth going home, is it? Reporter interviewing a 104-year-old woman:'And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?' the reporter asked.
  She simply replied, 'No peer pressure.'The nice thing about being senile is You can hide your own Easter eggs.I've sure gotten old! I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement,
  New knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes
  I'm half blind,
  Can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,
  Take 40 different medications that
  Make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts.
  Have bouts with dementia ..
  Have poor circulation;
  Hardly feel my hands and feet anymore.
  Can't remember if I'm 89 or 98.
  Have lost all my friends. But, thank God,
  I still have my driver's license.I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape,So I got my doctor's permission to
  Join a fitness club and start exercising.
  I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors.
  I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But,
  By the time I got my leotards on, The class was over.My memory's not as sharp as it used to be. Also, my memory's not as sharp as it used to be.Know how to prevent sagging? Just eat till the wrinkles fill out.It's scary when you start making the same noises As your coffee maker.These days about half the stuff In my shopping cart says, 'For fast relief.'

  I never liked anyway,
  The good fortune to run into the ones I do, and
  The eyesight to tell the difference..Always Remember This:You don't stop laughing because you grow old,

  You grow old because you stop laughing!!!

  Wow... a little dust storm and people are screaming armagedon! in central NSW Australia, we get them all the time, not abig deal really, just part of life here... after the long drought we have had I am not surprised that the wind carried the dust as far as it did... It did make for some really good pictures though.

  How to stick up for yourself to JWs...

  by cognac in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i figured i'd start a thread on this because i've noticed especially with women they really beat you into submission.

  so, i thought it would be good to talk about how to handle different situations without arguing.. if you have any ideas on how to handle the following situations, or have any other scenerios to add, please share!.

  1. the elders want to have a sheparding call.

  Ex. 1

  The elders want to have a sheparding call

  The brothers can first pull the logs out of their own eyes before I will permit them to point out the splinter in mine!

  Ex. 2

  Elders/Parents say you can't make a decision because your husband is the head

  My accepting him as my head means I have decided too, if I am not allowed to make decisions- then why did he ask ME to marry him in the first place???

  Ex. 3

  Maybe your problems are because you don't study/ pray enough

  No... I think we are just flat broke and stressed out over bills/feeding the kids/keeping our house because, our jobs dont pay enough! I could pray for money- but I still have go out and work for it!

  Ex. 4

  Maybe your not getting appointed because your not taking on your responsibility properly

  or maybe I am being responisble by working hard to provide for my family etc... is that not also important???

  Ex. 5

  I could never be married to your wife because she's not submissive enough

  Yeah! it's great when they go a bit wild hey?

  If you have left, how would you treat witnesss you run into ?

  i da'ed myself back in october 2008.. i also work at a local community college, where the witnesses have a booth set up during the winter months and usually there are 3 -4 people.

  just sitting there counting their time.. they are located in a student lounge area where i need to cross several times a day.. my question is this: would you just ignore them totally,.

  would you approach them if they made eye contact, or would you just approach them whenever and say hello ?

  I would be as nice and friendly as possible- I ran into my old study JW a few weeks ago in the shopping centre, I was extremly nice, and when asked how I was doing, I replyed with more than enough 'happy' news and even asked if she would like to catch up sometime over coffee.... I have moved house but my phone number hadn't changed....... still no call........ but I am hopefull.

  By showing these JW's where you work, that you can have a happy and fulfilling life out of the WTB- you are leading by example! shunning or ignoring them will only reinforce their ideas about apostates........

  A Smurf walked out of the Kingdom Hall

  by Joshnaz in

  2. friends

  when i was a kid, i'm guessing 5 or 6 years old.

  the "smurfs are demonized" rumors started spreading around.

  after a few weeks of hearing that and having to throw away all my smurf toys, i was at the kingdom hall and a sister came in with a bookbag with a big picture of a smurf on it!
